What a fantastic opportunity!
When Debbie offered to come and read some of her stories to the children I took up her offer with both hands.....Debbie then settled on the floor and drew some of the characters from her book for the children to colour in.
The children thoroughly enjoyed their visitor. They learnt a lot. Listening to different people read stories; taking turns to ask questions; learning words like “author” “illustrator” “artist”; joining in a drawing activity are all foundation skills.
I even twisted Debbie’s hand and she drew some of her characters for the window mural!
